i’m going to be honest, chapter 4 sucks badly. there is valuable historical information, but davis’ analysis is shoddy. she contradicts her own earlier points and the actual historical record, and is overly concerned with rewriting history to outright DENY the male supremacy and sexism central to manhood suffrage. she tries to rewrite black male supremacy out of existence, and marginalizes black women completely

Very insightful (of course)
